Of the Rays of the Sun.

The Rays are not so hot as is the Sun,
Because they do more loose and scatter'd run:
For when within a Glass those Beams unite,
They peirce, & sharp through every thing do bite ;
But being separate, they weaker grow,
And then like Cowards several ways do go.
 

Concaves draw to a Centre.
